Walking Feast, Round 1

A few weeks back now, I met up with the lovely Rochelle of Sexy Girls Eat for a Walking Feast.  If you have to ask what a Walking Feast is, why are we friends?  I’m just teasing.  It is as simple – and as wonderful – as it sounds.  A feast while walking.  Admittedly, some of our feasting was done while seated, but the eating began around 1 pm and we didn’t part ways until 2 am.  The damage we could have done is far worse than actually was done – I was having issues and apologized profusely to the [...]

Dream Kitchen

For a recent Birthday Bunch brunch - ANM’s – the group trooped down to Brooklyn for a HK Cafe style meal.  (Ok, in all fairness, there wasn’t much trooping; Dr. PB (formerly MD) lives in outer LI and on her way in picked up MK and I from Queens; the Manhattanites drove in and the rest of the bunch live in Brooklyn somewhere.  Since we’re scattered like so, it isn’t that big of a deal… I’m just a lazy ass.) I’ve mentioned HK cafe cuisine briefly before in a post on XO Kitchen but I’ll explain it again.  It’s what I’ve now decided [...]

Recipe Fridays: Soy-Glazed Salmon with Soba Salad

Mmm… those aren’t burnt bits, I assure you.  Just extra deliciousness… (Seriously, they’re not burned… it’s this silly story about how I went to buy soy sauce and well, my mom bought me a bottle last time and said, “This is the good stuff to use,” and when I went to the store on Sunday, I bought what I thought I remembered her getting me: premium dark soy sauce.  Turns out she’d gotten me premium soy sauce; the dark stuff is super dark.)  Mmm… even more delicious is the side that goes with it.  No.  Wait.  They’re both super delicious.  [...]

Throwback… Rewind 4 Years (Baltimore)

I was digging through my personal blog and stumbled across some food entries.  Thought I’d amuse you with them… (I added the links to the related posts; The Feisty Foodie didn’t exist back then).  February 22, 2005 BF and I drove down to Baltimore, passing through Philly on the way down to get cheesesteaks at my favorite place and on the way up to go to Morimoto.  Here is the food run down, with side notes:  Saturday, lunch: Jim’s for cheesteaks, the line wrapped around the block but was well worth the wait.  DELICIOUS.  Arrived at our hotel at night [...]

Morimoto NYC

After raving about Nobu and realizing that I hadn’t yet sampled black cod at Morimoto, I decided to rectify this matter and revisit Morimoto.  (It was also just a blatant excuse to spoil myself a little further; it’d been a while since I’d eaten at Morimoto – 2.5 years!  How is that any way to treat one of your favorite restaurants?) Luckily, I had a day off scheduled, so after taking care of some personal business, I headed into the city for a leisurely solo lunch.  (Note: I am really enjoying dining solo; I bring a book and read between [...]
